    Shows Teen Stress Rivals That of Adults, 2014​. Retrieved from

    http://www.apa.org/news/press/releases/2014/02/teen-stress.aspx. This study was

    conducted to compare and contrast the levels of stress between adolescents and adults in

    order to inform the two aforementioned parties of their levels of stress and potential

    dangers to their well being. The article provides multiple basis of inquiry such as whether

    the teen or adult’s stress seems to have increased or decreased over the years, and

    whether their perceived level of stress is seen as healthy or not, and does so while

    comparing the two groups simultaneously. Lastly, the article mentions the negative

    influences of stress on behaviors such as sleep, exercise, and eating. The overarching

    point expressed from this study is the underestimation made by teens on the impacts of

    stress on their body, whether physical or mental, and therefore there is a need for

    awareness.

    Armacost, Robert L., (1990). High School Student Stress and the Role of Counselors. ​AskRI​.

    38 (2), 105. Retrieved from http://askri.org/. Armacost’s article outlines all the

    components of a study done on student stress to provide data on a little researched

    audience. He provides an introduction by breaking down the literal meaning of stress and
    adding some information from previous studies done on comparable topics. Armacost

    then outlines the premise of the study and describes the four segments of the method: the

    procedure, questionnaire, sample, and data analyses. This is followed by all the statistics

    of the study and a brief analysis. One particularly insightful finding was the report of the

    A level students being able to handle stress the least well. Although this article is slightly

    outdated, the information proves relevant and accurate to other sources while providing

    historical context to the affair.

    Carlson, D (2016). ​3 Ways Stress Negatively Affects Students Performance​. Retrieved from

    http://www.fosteredu.pennfoster.edu/3-ways-stress-negatively-affects-student-performan

    ce. Carlson outlines three major ways that stress impacts students in order to bring light

    to students and their companions of an increasingly prominent issue. Carlson begins by

    addressing the multiple causes of stress in students. Then he makes his claim of the three

    ways stress negatively impacts the performance of students. He lists sleep quality,

    increased anger, and decrease in academic performance as the three largely impacted

    areas of student life. This article not only gives the effects but offers insight to plausible

    causes such as keeping up with grades, extracurriculars, family and friends, and

    maintaining a social identity. Carlson’s claims on the causes and effects of stress within

    students gives way to apparent explanations for larger problems surrounding student life.

    NYU. (11 August 2015). NYU Study Examines Top High School Student’s Stress and Coping

    Mechanisms. In ​News, Publications, and Facts, NYU News​. Retrieved from

    https://www.nyu.edu/about/news-publications/news/2015/august/nyu-study-examines-top

    -high-school-students-stress-and-coping-mechanisms.html. The authors of this study


    notify parents, students, and America of the growing stress in high school student’s lives

    that hinders their performance in and out of school. While the study is all-encompassing,

    it touches upon the increasing mental health problems seen in teens from private schools

    and the stigma that comes along with it. Additionally the study reveals the use of

    substances such as alcohol and marijuana as common methods of stress relief as reported

    from interviews with students. This publication offers a unique perspective and

    information in which adds dimension to the comprehension and depth of this issue.

    Ossola, Alexandra (2015, October 9). High-Stress High School. ​The Atlantic​. Retrieved from

    http://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2015/10/high-stress-high-school/409735.

    Ossola reveals the hidden life of students enrolled in private schools who burden the

    immense pressures of college preparation to those ignorant to the situation. She begins by

    outlining the stressors for many teens that are mainly caused by the hyper-competitive

    process of gaining college acceptance. She furthers her claim by adding to the report that

    it’s unhealthy to be “on 24/7” and offers some solutions to coping with stress. The article

    also provides another perspective on the subject by countering the reports of students

    from private schools to that of students from schools in low-class, urban areas. Despite

    economic background, the conclusions of the reported study shows that about half of the

    surveyed students reported being under “a great deal of stress” every day sufficiently

    backing her claim with an appaling statistic.

    Reddy, P. (2014). ​Teens More Stressed-Out Than Adults, Survey Shows​. Retrieved from

    https://www.nbcnews.com/health/kids-health/teens-more-stressed-out-adults-survey-sho

    ws-n26921. The author of this article educates his or her readers of the false notion of
    “carefree youth” and the reality of modern students through the reference of a study done

    by Harris Interactive and multiple interviews of a high school student, high school

    administration, and even an executive director of a Teen hotline to backup this claim.

    Related points made from the analysis of the study include: lack of escape from stress,

    the increase of stress in teens through generations, and how teens are now cracking under

    the pressures of stress. This article provides primary and secondary references in which

    asserts it’s claim and creates a holistic context of this national crisis.
